FH Side Story 1.2

The next morning. Won-hyeop woke up early, before the sun had even risen. After drinking a glass of water and reading internet articles on his phone, he headed out for a morning walk with Cookie. The sky was pitch black, and the streetlights were still on.

As he circled the residential complex, his thoughts were on Ji-su. Ji-su had appeared in his dream last night, but he couldn't remember the details. He was sure Ji-su was there, but he couldn't recall what they had done.

He hadn't masturbated once since the day he returned home and did so after eating sujebi with Ji-su. It was part of an effort to stop viewing Ji-su as a sexual being. And for good reason—everything was going well. Ji-su was steadily gaining weight, and the frequency of their messages was gradually increasing. Most were simple questions asking if he had eaten, but he was satisfied. In this situation, he couldn't risk ruining things by doing something foolish. He felt almost like an ascetic, but he didn't feel wronged by it.
